The Department of Homeland Security will rescind the regulations released July 6 barring international students from remaining in the United States if their course load is entirely online, federal judge Allison Burroughs announced Tuesday.
This announcement follows a lawsuit by Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology against the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement decision. At least seven other lawsuits had been filed by states and other universities, including one by 17 states and the District of Columbia, in the days since Harvard and MIT first announced their lawsuit.
The agreement today was reached five minutes into the hearing, according to The Harvard Crimson.
Brown filed an amicus brief in support of Harvard and MIT on Sunday July 12, joining Cornell, Princeton and Penn among other institutions. University spokesperson Brian Clark cited the “tremendous negative impact the temporary rule would have on international students at Brown, and international students across the country,” for the University’s decision to file the brief, The Herald previously reported.
Prior to its rescission, Christina Paxson P’19 called the guidance for the Student and Exchange Visitor Program “nothing short of cruel.”
Provost Richard Locke P’18 wrote that the reversal of the ICE guidance represented an “important victory” and “great relief” for American universities in a community-wide email Tuesday night. The policy’s revocation “is an important recognition of the extraordinary contributions that the international students and scholars make to our universities,” he wrote.
Locke also expressed that the University will continue to advocate on behalf of international students through the promotion of policies and actions that support the personal and academic success of members of the international community.
This message of relief was echoed by University spokesperson Brian Clark in an email to The Herald. “Our hope is that for international students at Brown and at universities across the country, this offers some reassurance and enables them flexibility to move forward with academic year plans that balance their health, safety and academic pursuits to the greatest extent possible,” he wrote.
ICE will return to the previous regulations enacted on March 13 allowing international students taking online courses to stay in the U.S. following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, when many universities shifted to remote learning.

To supplement the supply of on-campus housing and allow for a de-densified campus during the upcoming academic year, the University has agreed to one-year leases at four off-campus locations in Providence.
The University has leased units at 257 Thayer Apartments, River House, 95 Chestnut Street and Chestnut Commons at 85 Chestnut St., according to University Spokesperson Brian Clark. The University will be assigning some students, primarily seniors, to these off-campus apartments, according to Residential Life’s Fall 2020 Opening website.
The residences are “all within reasonable walking distance to existing shuttle stops,” Clark wrote in an email to The Herald.
In total, the leases will cover approximately 220 beds, with the number of beds per location ranging from 30 to 70, Clark wrote. Apartment-style units include studios and one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Some of the units will be fully furnished, and the University will provide furnishings in other cases.
The units will be assigned and billed as if they are on-campus housing, but students living there may be subject to additional policies implemented by the private property managers. The cost of housing at Brown for the 2020-2021 academic year was set at $9,774 — a 3.76 percent increase from the previous academic year — at the Corporation’s February meeting.
Clark said that “the financial terms of our leases, on these or any other leases for Brown, is not information that we’d share publicly.”
Students with a minimum semester level of five may request assignment to a Brown-leased off-campus apartment. Assignments will prioritize higher semester-level, according to the Fall 2020 Location of Study form and housing questionnaire. In the housing questionnaire, students may also list up to three other students that they would like to live near as preferred neighbors. Students are required to submit this form indicating their location of study, as well as their housing and meal plan preferences for the upcoming academic year by 11:59 p.m. Wednesday, July 15.
Approximately half of the University’s on-campus housing will be in use in the fall semester, according to the Reslife Fall 2020 website. Students living on campus will be placed in singles to reduce building density and enable proper social distancing measures amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Housing assignments for the fall are for one semester only, The Herald previously reported. It was not immediately clear if students in the Brown-leased spaces would only be placed in those accommodations for the fall.
Returning students will be notified of their housing assignments by Aug. 10, and students will move onto campus on a staggered schedule between Aug. 29 and Sept. 1.
Clarification: A previous version of this article noted that University Spokesperson Brian Clark declined to comment on the financial terms of the University’s leases. In fact, Clark said that the financial terms of the leases is not information that the University would share publicly.
